Again let me repeat that it was a great experience for me.. Let me assure the propective rjgk quizmasters that conducting a quiz within this crowd is def.ly worth the wait (rjgk booked uptil yr 2001?) and worth the effort. Even though this quiz was a repeat theme, there were differences. While the previous rjgk was heavily into the black-n-white era, I tried to make this one a uniform to all 5 decades of Lata. So the songs selected for the quiz had to fulfil the following conditions: 1. In order to demonstrate Lata's capabilities of modulating her voice for different actresses, each song had to be for a diff actress. 2. Each of the 5 decades had to be well represented. 3. Each song had to satisfy the second theme.. 4. The song preferably shouldnt be in ISB (75 % of these songs werent!!:) 5. Most important, the song had to be good, and I had to have the tape :) Because these 5 conditions were required to be met, some songs were tough and less heard. Now for the second theme.. as many of you could guess, the other theme was that these were 22 songs sung by Lata for DIFFERENT MD's. Hence this was a 22 different actresses + 22 different MD's kaa combo. And now that I have had a fair share of blabbering, I'll give out the answers... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.

Bronze medalists...(8 to 14 songs correct) ---------------- Ramki, Ikram, Pintu Diwana, Abhay Achavat, Lalitha, Praveen, Kalyan and Atul, Raj and Renu + Ashish. Silver Medalists...(15 to 17 correct) ---------------- Harish and Namrata, Surjit and Harmesh (great show by the husband/wife teams), Neeraj + Swapna + Indranil and now for the TOP FIVE PLACES....!!! Gold Medalists (18 to 21) -------------- #5 Place shared by... Nitin Joshi who also wins the BEST SOLO ENTRY ! (18 + 1) and Sridhar Natarajan, Shalini and Manisha Nigam, Atul Verma (all r 1 team) (18 + 1) #4 is... Samiuddin Mohammad and Preetham Gopalswamy (20 + 2) They got all the tough ones, but couldnt get the two newer songs..for the hum aapke hain kaun song, Sami had to go thru the trauma of borrowing his roommate's tape and listening the entire tape..(he plans to sue me for that)! #3 is shared by... Ajit Dandekar and Roopa Dhawan (21 + 2) Their's was the fastest entry. Also, Ajit could describe the entire picturiz- ation of the 24th song but couldnt get the lyrics. Unfortunately this wasnt the Chitrahaar quiz, hence he had to forego the top spot. and Vinay and Hemlata Mishra (21 + 2) Their's was the lastest entry. They also didnt get the same song that Ajit and Roopa didnt.. both the teams are from pennsylvania. Some conspiracy?? Perr my 'jasoos' has confirmed that there wasnt any! ;-) and Now for the Top spotsssssssssssss.......(drums going wild...) Platinum Medalists ----------------- #2 Neeraj Malhotra and Prince Kohli (22 + 1) They cribbed that it was a tough quiz but then, next day came back with all the answers!! The fight went on for the tie-breakers till finally Prince got 1 yesterday..still they fell one short! and hence..... we come to the #1 spot..!!! The all-perfect entries !!! and these are...(drums, guitars all going wild).... The Winners (again we have two teams here) ----------- Balaji and Malini.. the husband-wife combo (22 + 2) They dont have internet access right now, so prob'ly dont know of the results.. Their first version was 21+2, but then sent in a guess (and a right one too), to secure the top spot with the all perfect score! and Chetan Vinchhi, Ajay Divekar and Ashok Dhareshwar (22 + 2) An all perfect score, with the pstats included!! In fact to type the solutions all I had to do was save their entry and make the additions. If I am not mistaken, Ashok Dhareshwar has also achieved a three-peat here!!! Congratulations to the winners! Really creditable to get the all-perfect score on this tough quiz without the help from ITRANS. Also heartiest congratulations to all the participants. Lata is certainly the greatest and I hope you all enjoyed listening to her songs while solving the quiz. It was great to read all the comments (and I must add that all were encouraging words, thank you! some of u have great s-o-h :) Also, please feel free to discuss the songs/clues/ or the quiz in general. Such a discussion would help the next quizmasters to set up their strategies better. I hope you all enjoyed the quiz as much as I did. With this I pass the baton onto Renu for rjgk-silver jubilee (and on time too since she wanted it by 4th of july). Adios! Mahesh
